Not many people know that there are no regular rivers in the Yucatan but rather an intricate network of underground rivers. This is how Rio Secreto was formed, by thousands of years of water filtered by limestone forming striking caves and rock formations.

In Rio Secreto Plus you will get to explore these caves by walking through, experience the nature´s perfect acoustic and even learn more about the mayan culture in an impressive video mapping in the cave, how cool is that? You will also have the opportunity of getting on a bike through the jungle to find a hidden cave entrance and rappel down the underground river. Learn about rock formation as you see impressive stalactites and stalagmites and float in a pitch-black cave to discover the sounds of the underground. Rio Secreto is definitely a must thing to do in Cancun.
